just installed my coils and everything is working great..
big test for me is when we head to vegas..

 

that's awesome news scremn!

 

When is the next batch of ignition kits going out? Any news?

 

We have parts coming in but no firm delivery date as of yet. We'll be sure to notify everyone as soon as we have something nailed down. You won't have to wait for long.

 

I stand corrected!

 

Quick question. How can you tell if a spark plug wire is broken? I removed mine to install and have no problems. Just wondering on how you can tell.

 

Oh OK, lol, No misfires yet

 

Mob psychology indeed. My coils are still working great with several thousand miles on em so far. No misfires, no nothin.

My average MPG has gone down slightly, but my average RPM has gone up considerably.

 

if only these results were coming from those with FI

 

Cant wait to get mine and give them a try... I got a feeling my OEM 50k miles coils/plugs/wires(yes, they have never been changed, I just got the car) might be the cause of my 18 mpg average on my last highway road trip...

 

Is anyone else having trouble keeping the back end of the car in line after installing the BHR coils?
1st and 2nd both, the *** end will come out if I mash the pedal while cornering.
Could the BHR coils have affected my rear suspension? I know for a fact I had to throw in a little clutch tap do that before installing the coils :-)

 

OH MY GOD!! Now the Coil Kit is causing loss of traction. I can see it now,,
Telephone pole injured due to wild "***" movements of RX8 with BHR Coil Kit. Coils said to cause "uncontrollable loss of traction."

 

LOL

totally unrelated. its all i your head.

 

 

Actually, a 4th gear shift on the track yesterday resulted in my rear end wiggling a little bit...would that be because of my BHR ignition system?

 

nope - too much fast food

 

Hmm...hund was nice enough to pick me up a junior bacon cheeseburger from wendy's but I don't recall getting that until after my last session.

She's so nice to me.

 

cant wait to get mines

 

I've run only less than one tank of gas on the new system and wanted to go through it and then start my "test" on the new one. What I feel is a more stable idle and smooth power to fuel shut off. I haven't done the new plugs yet as they were shipped just after (I had to put it in the same day I got it). The next nice day here in NY I will throw the plugs in and see what happens. I wanted to see if I got better MPG's before doing that, just to test. I would say the power is just constant which I got more of a hesitation up top. I just thought it was normal.

 

Well, the results are in. bse50 nailed it and my hot start issue is due to low compression (155K miles and counting) and, as expected, had nothing to do with my BHR ignition. The ignition is working well and has cleared up my mis-fire CELs. I think that I will live with the hot start until I can't stand it anymore and then have a new engine put in.

 

couldnt read that in the attached thumbnail :D

 

155K on a renny? That might be a new record.

What oil do you use?

 

Alien - I will try and get a darker scan so that it will show up better. What it showed was all "chambers" (anyone know the correct term?) on both rotors running at ~4.2 kg/cm2. According to the book they are supposed to be 8.5 with a minimum of 6.9. Still runs like a bat out of hell.

Socket - believe it or not but the dealer has done all of my oil changes so it has been whatever Mazda has been putting in.

 

That's damn impressive.

 

Wow 155k with 5w20 and no pre-mix! ...Lol, that is a slap in the face to some of the oil fiends. Navy, don't feel bad about replacing a motor after 155k, thats a LONG run. Hell, I've had piston motors go bad before that. :P
